.User Management v2.1.4.7

The User Management functionality provides the platform for you to define who has access to what. This section provides the ability to define 'Permissions', assign those Permissions to specific Roles that Admin Users define, and assign these Roles to specific Users.

Summary

User Management within PCR360 is broken up into three sub-topics in order simplify implementation of User Permissions. Users can be assigned Roles. Roles contain Permission Sets. Permissions control what is or is not allowed by default for a User's interaction with the Application. These three related areas help Admin Users quickly build up and maintain the access to the various groups of Users that interact with the application.

Emulate User

User Management features an emulation button to give the System Administrators the ability to see exactly what a given User sees when they log in. This can be a valuable tool when setting up Permission sets.

To Emulate any given User:

1. Go to Admin > User Maintenance > Users.
2. Select the desired User and click the Emulate button.
3. You are taken to that User’s Landing Page, and the system behaves as defined for that User.
4. When you are done, click the End Emulation button.

Note: In the bottom of the 360 browser window, you see a message that tells you who you are emulating. While emulating the User, the audit trail shows both your name the emulated User’s name on the audit records for any changed data.
This message looks like this:

Note: See the Best Practices for suggestions on making Emulations easier to use.
